Friday 21st was a huge auction day.
I went to most locations this day and we ended up doing about 45 units.
This day i ended up with no units.
There was only a few i wanted to bid on, and they went way over what i wanted to pay for them.
So i am saving my money until next friday the 28th.
I have also started to make a auction calender for the rest og of the year, and omg, this will be a full time thing in the months to come.
LOL but i love it!

My last auction win turned out to be the best.
After getting everything back to my place, i have started to go thru it.
This unit turns out to be a minature goldmine.
This is also the first time i find anything gun related. A 12 rounds Heckler and Kockh magasine.
It cleared with the Shelby County Sherriffs office and are ready to be sold.
I don't know the value of it, but it might bring a few bucks.
Beside that i got a brand new in box car radiator to a 2006/2007 Ford Taurus SE/SEL.
Band new food slicer unopend in box.
Brand new HP printer
Labratorie scale
Brand new analog to digital tv tuner
Tons of tools, and 2 set of Black and decker power tools.
Brand new Las vegas slot machine.
+ all the normal stuff, like paintings, glassware, fine china, ++++
So it turned out great. I am happy with this unit.

Got two units today.
I got two units today for a total of $165.00, and it was one of my better days out in the field.
The weather was better, the crowd was way smaller, about 10 people.
Well the one unit only had a dresser in it, and i only paid $15.00 for it. So it will tripple my spending without any problems. Maybe even 4 times my investment.
The second unit was a man's dream unit, i got it for $150.00 and it has tools, New unused carparts, glassware, digital cameras, tables, paintings/prints, clothing, marvel comic magazines, ++++ (and $26.00 in cash, mostly coins )
I have not looked thru it yet, so i don't know what is in it, just took a quick look after i had paid for the unit.
I will go back tomorrow with my transport guy and pick it up.
But i can say this much, this was my best unit so far. Just the brand new car parts are like $600.00 alone

New auction day tomorrow.
Tomorrow is yet again another auction day here in Memphis.
I can't wait to get out on the road and do some bidding.
3 location spread thruout the day can be good, as the crowd might be alot smaller then it has been.
I did the "must" call around today, to see if they are still on, and 3 out of 4 locations are on, with a total of 16 units up for auction.
I have a good feeling about this one, and i think this will be my big breakthru.
I will as soon as i can post an update on how it went, so follow the blog this week.
There is also a mini auction on friday this week that i am looking forward to.

What to do inbetween stoarge auctions
Well there is no more auctions before the 18th.
Until then i run my own company selling power genrators and steel buildings. Infact i sell storage unit buildings.
But i can't stay away from auctions even innbetween the storage auctions. Online there are tons of auctions places where i roam around trying to find good deals. This keeps me on the go when the storage auctions starts again.
Did you know that the post office also have auctions? where they auctions off unclaimed packages and stuff.
Then you have goverment auctions online that are pretty cool. Where you can do a really great deal, even for a reselling point of veiw.
Keep the auction fever alive people!

My latest auction on january 12th
Again we was out doing the second day of Extra storage space tour.
And this day was good, TONS of nice lockers up for grab. One unit was sold for $300.00 and i am sure it is going to give the guy back 20 times that amount.
For my own part, i am very happy with what i got.
I got a unit for $20.00 this day, as i am trying to spread my investments on more units.
It was a 5x10 unit, and i looked all dusty, it looked like no one had been in there for years.
Well to my big suprise, none of the "big fish" wanted to bid on it, so i started of with a $5.00 bid, one guy did 15 right after that, so i bid $20.00 The guys looked at me and said, your trash now.
LOL he should only had known what was in there. My motto is, never turn a unit down because of it's looks. It is what's on the inside that counts.
Well i took it all back to my place, two trips in a little Nissan Sentra and the job was done.
Back home i started to go thru things, and one little "gold nugget after another came out of the dusty old boxes.
Here is what i got form this $20.00 dollar unit.
1 Porcelain sign from the Viktor company, they went out of business in 1921. And the sign is in almost mint condition.
One box full of old toys from the 50's and 60's
Two boxes full of glass plates and drinking glasses.
1 16 pice set of christmas fine china (unopen and brand new)
22 magazines from the 60's all about beatles and rolling stones.
1 black and white photo of John Lennon with autograph.
1 American creed letter from the US house of congress, sign by the congressman of Tennessee in 1964.
1 Fashionshow program signed by Roger Nelson him self.
1 black and white photograph of John Lennon (Beatles) signed. Might be a print, but have to have it checked out.
1 framed in A4 paper with at least 50 different autograph's i am not sure who signed it.
2 Programs from 1964 from the opera in St Louis
4 Official NASA catalogues from the 1964 regarding the moon landing with the apollo. (in mint condition)
1 catalogue of the lunar orbit expedition ( in almost mint condition)
1 old Memphis railway fare coin
4 old coasters
2 old menu's with add on "we sell pepsi" stickers
1 Secratary desk from the 1960's
1 old workout machine from the 1980's i think.
1 old flute from the 60's
+ tons of old pictures.
I am sure i am forgetting something, but the things listed above is absolutley worth the $20.00 bucks i paid for it.
So i had a very good day out in the field, even though we saw the low 20's here in Memphis yesterday.
Now i am looking forward to the auctions next week, can't wait for them to come.
These are the small ones, 4 locations each day. 18th and 21st is the magical days next week.
